Today (April 27) is Freedom Day, which commemorates the first post-apartheid elections held on this day in 1994.
Here are some ways we can celebrate our newfound freedom in South Africa:
1. Invite people over for a braai, as this is one of the most South African ways to bring people together.
2. Picnics are very popular, whether at a park or in someone’s backyard.
3. Respect each other and the rights we all have, as this is what the “rainbow nation” is all about.
4. Take a family road trip to the KZN Midlands and visit the famous Nelson Mandela Capture Site.
There is a museum, shop, restaurant, swimming pool and of course the famous world-class sculpture of Nelson Mandela.
5. Expand your knowledge of Freedom Day by educating yourself a bit more about the history of this country.
